I speak English and German fluently and I'm fairly good at French. Then I've got some basic knowledge of Spanish and Latin and soon I'll start learning Irish Gaelic (although it seems to be extremely difficult...).

we had a chapter about ireland in our english book this year and a few words in some texts were gaelic. they looked really difficult. somehow that was very funny (and emberassing for the one who was reading...) because neither our teacher nor the class knew how to pronounce them

But I can sing a song! XD XD XDMy next project fro Tagalog singing is...well...*looks around* The Philippine National Anthem. My nationality is Filipino, so that's why I'm learning. Are you Camille? *curious*

well, I'm from the Philippines so I speak Filipino naturally. my step dad is American and besides the fact that our 2nd language is English, I'm used to speaking in English. I also know a bit of French and Spanish though

Yeah, see the problem is with me is that I was born in the States to my parents who were born in the Philippines, so many times when we went to parties, I wouldn't understand a thing. But now that I'm older, I can catch some things, which is really good! Though, at the parties there were always these things:

Though, the one thing that I recieved from my other Pinoy family in New York was that...even though you don't understand what the joke is, when ever they start laughing like crazy, start laughing with them--even though you don't understand. And that concept I do no matter WHERE I am. ^_^

And at least when you go to the Philippines, there are people who can understand you and they won't be like..."Ano? Ano? Ano?" I am learning still and I've been to the Philippines twice, when I was five and two, and I plan to go in two years when I'm sixteen. But I know a lot of animals because of his program called Before You Know It that I had on my computer. But I used podcasts and those didn't work as well. I know like basic words like..Sino po? Who is that?Ano po? What?And my catchphrase- Ano bayan?! (It's also What is that, but sometimes, I mean it like What the HELL?!)

English is my second language and I speak it fluently but I can't speak my first language,Irish,to save my life even though I've been learning it for the last 11 years!No joke.The hight of my Irish extends to "Is maith liom cáca"(I like cake) and "Cá bhfuil an bainne"(Where's the milk).I know more than that but nothing more advaced.I don't recommend trying to learn Irish.That word there "bhfuil" is pronounced "will".I have to do Irish for the next three years though
